Was a blast!!! G&PP came to celebrate with us and the kids loved it. C really got it this year and I think she may remember it. The girls were so cute. We went with a few of their friends and everyone had a blast. The highlights were at first C didn't understand and thought she was being invited in when the doors were opened, C being scared of bigger peeps being dressed up, Av being the leader to the house but then letting the younger kids ahead of her to get their candy, the girls being silly and saying "happy birthday" and "merry christmas" instead of trick or treat and of course the grumpy dog the just had to sit in the wagon and look cute. He didn't understand what all the fuss was about and why he had to wear the silly fuzzy thing on his head and body again. He really thought he got the bum end of the deal. Still had to wear the totally silly costume but didn't reap any of the rewards from it. Some of the houses just had bowls of candy sitting out. We were stressing the importance of saying thank you and one of the silly girls said thank you to the bowl. So then that became the big joke and they all had to say "thank you bowl." At one house the lights were on and it was decorated so the girls were up ringing the door bell. No one came out but there was like a flower urn on the porch that didn't have flowers in it. At one point C was seen on tip toes looking in the urn for candy. She was leaving no leaf unturned. heheh When we got home the candy had to be looked at and gone through. I think I managed to keep them to only 3 pieces for the night, so not too bad. Slowly the candy will disappear never to be seen again.
